Thunder — Falling Notes Piano Tutorial

Watch "Thunder" by Imagine Dragons in falling notes style — like Synthesia. Color-coded notes fall onto the keyboard in real time. Practice left hand, right hand, or both. Key of C, 84 BPM.

Tip: Start at 50% speed to get comfortable with the fingering, then work your way up to full tempo.

Lyrics

Just a young gun with a quick fuse, I was up tight, wan na let loose. I was dream ing of big ger things and wan na leave my old life be hind. Not a ‘yes, sir.’ Not a fol low er. Fit the box, fit the mold, have a seat in the (F5)foy er, take a num ber. I was light ning be fore the thun der. (Thun der, (C)thun der, thun der, thun… Thun der, thu thu thun der, thun der. (Am)Thun der, thun der, thun… (F)Thun der, thu thu thun der, thun der.) (C)Thun der, feel the thun der. Light ning, then the thun der. (Am)Thun der, feel the thun der. Light ning, then the thun der. Thun der, (C)thun der, thun der.
